Chapter 2498: My Wife Is a Pirate 28

Jin Chen lowered his gaze at the person sitting in his embrace, his arms loosely wrapping around, as if to prevent him from falling.

Bu Changji paid no heed and fiercely kissed him.

Clearly it was the most intimate kiss between lovers, yet it didn't seem to be seeking tenderness; instead, it seemed like a contest.

A mutual taming game.

But Jin Chen felt that Bu Changji in his embrace was trembling.

The fierce kiss quickly changed flavor; Bu Changji seemed unable to hold on, feeling the long-missed warmth he craved, and Jin Chen, as always, offered his tolerant yet domineering gentleness.

His inner defenses completely collapsed.

Bu Changji kissed haphazardly, but tears uncontrollably streamed down, mixed with saltiness.

Finally, he turned his head, burying his scorching cheek in Jin Chen's neck crook, silently sobbing; tears quickly soaked a large area of Jin Chen's shoulder clothing.

Jin Chen tightened the arm around his waist, gently patting and caressing his slightly trembling back.

After a long while, Jin Chen softly sighed, "I thought you were so capable, baring fangs and brandishing claws, so fierce."

Bu Changji choked up a little, lifting his face, red from crying.

That alluringly beautiful face flushed crimson, the corners of his eyes wet and red, adding a touch of heart‑wrenching fragility.

Bu Changji complained aggrievedly, "You just rely on my liking you, on my treating you well… to bully me relentlessly…"

Jin Chen felt both annoyed and amused; he took a deep breath and couldn't help raising his hand to gently cover that chattering mouth that spouted nothing but fallacies.

Then he lowered his head, took his earlobe between his teeth and bit it lightly, voice low, "I'm bullying you, huh? So who's actually bullying whom?"

Bu Changji shuddered sensitively, clearly unable to resist this action that carried a punishing tone yet was extremely intimate.

His gaze flickered dazedly for a moment, and he instinctively chased Jin Chen's lips, actively offering a wet kiss.

The faint blush at the corners of his eyes made him unintentionally show a sickly allure; taking advantage of the raging storm outside the ship, the perilous setting gave him righteous confidence, and he all the more recklessly kissed and bit, stubbornly locking his arms around Jin Chen's neck.

Even as if venting anger, he left tooth marks on Jin Chen's solid shoulder.

The ship shuddered violently in the wind and waves.

In the end, one could no longer tell whether that heart‑pounding shaking came from the towering waves outside or from the surging affection.

【Detected Villain Heartthrob Value +10, total 78!】

【Detected Villain Blackening Value -10, total 70!】

——

The ship shuddered, and from outside came the pirates' loud warnings and curses.

The Slaughter Wave Ship finally found, on the sea surface, that equally struggling in wind and waves yet perilous like a ghost, the Ghost Head Pirate Ship.

And those captured fishermen were indeed bound to the mast and deck of the Ghost Head Ship.

They had no wind‑ or rain‑shielding protection; only a coarse hemp rope less than two finger‑widths wide hoisted them high, suspending them in midair.

When a huge wave struck, it slammed hard into them, choking them to the point of agony.

It was as if their flesh and spirit were placed on a rack of fear and repeatedly whipped; many had already lost all color in their faces.

And the bound fishermen were not only neighbors from White Wave Bay, but also unlucky villagers from other settlements who hadn't had time to return and were robbed.

The fishermen of White Wave Bay instantly saw Jin Chen appear at the bow of the Slaughter Wave Ship, and beside him stood Jiu Shi; despairing hearts could not help but rise a faint hope.

"Is it Chenzi… and… Jiu Shi? Are they here to rescue us?!" they shouted desperately for help.

But the other fishermen simply didn't believe it, murmuring dejectedly, "They're all pirates… what good or bad could there be… could evil pirates possibly have a kind heart to save people?"

However, the Slaughter Wave Ship truly turned its bow, without hesitation, charging straight toward the Ghost Head Ship.

The chieftain of the Ghost Head Pirates stood on the bow, furious and shouting curses.

"Bu Changji! Are you sick? Daring to cause trouble in this damned weather!"

Bu Changji was soaked through; the sea wind blew his hair wild, his face cold and fierce, like a deep‑sea killer shark.

"I'm beating exactly you lot of useless fools—fire!"

At his command, the pirates on the Slaughter Wave Ship immediately sprang into action.

Specially made crossbows and concealed weapons with reverse hooks shot in unison toward the Ghost Head Ship.

The two huge ships continually neared and collided in the waves, emitting a grating, teeth‑setting screech.

When they drew near, the daring Hai Liu stepped onto the slick hull and leapt over to engage in close combat.

Hai Shisan and several agile pirates took the opportunity, using grappling lines to swing onto the Ghost Head Ship to rescue the White Wave Bay fishermen.

Jin Chen's figure was even more agile and uncanny.

He calmly observed the chaotic battle, constantly watching Bu Changji's surroundings to keep cold arrows from hitting him, while appearing to stand casually on the bow deck.

Unnoticed, he quietly circulated his Primordial Spiritual Qi; beneath the nearby dark sea, the keen‑scented great white sharks were drawn and swiftly swam over.

【Charge on, warriors of the deep sea!】

Ling Gun Gun fluttered in the wind at the bow, pointing straight at the Ghost Head Pirate Ship, head held high in disdain.

The great white sharks on the sea surface surged forward toward it.

The pirates on both ships spotted this uninvited bunch, were instantly terrified out of their wits, and the vessels nearly collided.

Just then another massive wave, mountain‑high, crashed down, nearly capsizing the smaller Ghost Head Ship outright!

At the critical moment, Bu Changji's first reaction was to rush to Jin Chen's side, clinging close to feel safe.

He flung out a long rope, hooking it onto the Ghost Head Ship's rail, and shouted hoarsely, "Climb over!"
